    Sony MDR-V6 (and family) Impressions Thread

    Haven't been on head-fi in a long while because my interests have shifted largely towards, cycling, But I will give an update about my mdr-v6 headphones.

      Haha. Just as his die, I have had mine for almost 1 year now. These are my first and only "real" pair of headphones. Long live the V6!

    I would sure get them! Sad seing a pair of "history" being discontinued. A 28 year production run is pretty good, though!

    Quote:     I find the red sticker much sexier and the metal plug on the V6 is better than the plastic plug on the 7506 IMHO.

    That might be a good thing- That is the cheapest I have ever seen a pair of 7506s go for. I might buy a pair of those myself!

    Sony MDR-V6 (and family) Impressions Thread

    The lack of mids and highs probably means a bad cord. The previous owner must have really badly abused them. I wouldn't do this due to new ones being fairly cheap, but You could try rewiring them which is fairly easy. If that doesn't work, you can replace the drivers- At that point is starts...

    Confused how a DAC would work on a computer.

    Quote: I was just about to buy it yesterday until I heard about Unicomp keyboards. Now I have to choose between the amp or the keyboard . I will probably decide once I get my new desk on sunday that is replacing my 19 year old Staples desk- That is called getting your moneys worth when it...

    Confused how a DAC would work on a computer.

    Quote: do you know of any slightly higher end models under 120? I will probably be upgrading these headphones within the next 2 years.   Quote:       Yeah, The MDR-V6 is a great day to day headphone. Mine have well over 1,500 hours on them and are still going strong. I also checked...

    Confused how a DAC would work on a computer.

    Pardon my confusion, I am only 15 and have been interested into high end audio for about a year now . I am split between getting a usb DAC or USB sound card. There are not many USB sound cards, But there are many USB DACs. Would a DAC act as a "sound card"? My idea is that there would be no...

    Over Ear Headphones for High School

    It looks kind of cheap :/ I also have never really favored logitech products, as everything I own from them is junk. Do you know any other good headphones from reputable brands such as Senheiser, Koss, etc?
